Macadamia Meadows Farm Bed and Breakfast is for those seeking the "real"
Hawaii. Our spacious country home, surrounded by our Macadamia Nut orchard,
is situated on eight plus acres in the historic Kau District, on the Big Island
of Hawaii. Our area boasts two unique beaches. Nearby are Papakolea [Green
Sandbeach]and Punalu'u [a Black Sand beach],and we're
just around the corner from SouthPoint [southern most point
in the U.S.A. and believed landing sight of the first Polynesians.]
Our ideally central location makes us a great home base for easy driving
times to island sites. We're 45 minutes from Hawaii Volcano National Park
and the Place of Refuge and exactly 1/2 way between Hilo and Kona.. For an update on what's happening on our farm estate check out our new BLOG.

Charlênè [far right] and Cortney [driving] are bringing Mac nuts
in from the orchard, on the
way to the processor. The bag Charlênè
is carrying weights about 85 lbs. A highlight of their
stay for many guests
are the complimentary, educational walking tours Charlênè offers
of the
orchard.

Private tennis court
We are proud to be a working farm and to have been farming pesticide free for almost 12 years now, and that truely
is the "feel" of our property. However, if you would enjoy a natural farm setting and like to play a little tennis as well,
we do have a great tennis court [with a couple of basketball hoops].

If star gazing is more your style, a favorite spot for guests is
the bench [pictured above] on our tennis court. Without light pollution
the night sky comes alive

This stunning photo of
the night sky over our farm was taken by Tunç Tezel. When we
received this Email from him [displayed below] , we immediately wrote
back and
requested his permission to display his photo of the night sky over our
farm on our website. He graciously consented. This pic was displayed
online in 2009 on the TWAN website in the International Year of
Astronomy.
"Hello,
This is Tunc Tezel from Turkey. You might remember me, as I had
stayed in your beautiful B&B in August 2007--------
I had toured all the Big Island and taken
many pictures in Volcanoes National Park, Punaluu, Mauna Kea and also in
Macadamia Meadows. One picture I had taken from Macadamia Meadows has recently
appeared in the website of a joint project I am participating, namely TWAN, The
World At Nighthttp://www.twanight.org/newTWAN/photos.asp?ID=3002211
TWAN
can be described as a program to create and exhibit a collection of stunning
photographs and time-lapse videos of the world’s most beautiful and historic
sites against a nighttime backdrop of stars, planets and celestial
events: http://www.twanight.org
The United
Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the
International Astronomical Union (IAU) have designated TWAN as a Special Project
of the International Year of Astronomy 2009.
